Hey everybody! My post is regarding an older MKII that was put down in a bean field and is now for sale. She is pretty rough but has potential if you take ten steps back and squint your eyes The boom tube is bent just aft of the cage, the left main gear was whipped out and there are some very slightly bent tubes where the boom attaches to the cage. Other than that the wings and tail are undamaged. The engine is an older 503 SCSI with the points style ignition and a 2 blade Tenn wood prop.
Needless to say the airplane is in tough shape and has been sitting in a barn in Ohio. My question is what every body thinks the airplane is worth, how many dollars it would take to get her airworthy again and if its even worth the effort? The project may not be for me but if any one else is interested its posted on the Akron, Ohio Craig's list for only 3K.
It would obviously need re-powered, re-covered and gone over with a fine tooth comb. It is however N-Number and has AWC. Just some thing to talk about over coffee this weekend! Fly often and fly safe
